Baavet

Written Jul 7, 2023, tagged under post,sleep,bed

Of my three affirmations I'm working on, it's clear that there's one that rules the others, which is the one about ... sleep. If I can get sleep right, the others tend to fall into place. Conversely, if sleep falls apart then the others are pretty well doomed too.

It's late, I'm tired, and I have a daughter with an early start for Duke of Edinburgh in the morning. This makes me think about my bed, and I'm reminded of how pleased we are with our recent purchase of a Baavet duvet. Duvet, made of wool, from sheep, who say "baaa" ... geddit?

We bought it to replace a down duvet, which should have been great but is actually really heavy and bulky. This one is wonderfully light and comfortable, and keeps us at just the right temperature. The price seemed pretty competitive to me - we could have spent a few £100s extra on a fancy down one, but I'm not sure it would have been any better. I'm pretty fussy about stuff I buy, but consider this to be a direct hit.

I can hear it now, siren-like, calling me upstairs. Who am I to argue?
